From this session, what information made a lasting impression? Web 2.0 sites and tools will create the need for really only one computer in the entire world that everyone can connect to via the internet through "dummy" computers. Everything can be saved, shared, downloaded, sold, etc. all from one place online.
How will you use this information as a teacher? (Productivity tool? Instructional tool?) Classroom teachers can create homepages using Pageflakes and widgets, save all of their favorite sites and resources to Del.ic.ious, and communicate via blogs.
How will your students use this information? (What kind of learning activity?) Students can now share their work online and communicate instantly with each other or teachers via blogs.
What kind of product will be produced from this type of educational handheld activity? NOT A HANDHELD ACTIVITY - but, students can publish their work online in virtually limitless formats.
How will you assess the student-created product? Same assessment / rubrics as with any other format, just more instantaneous and accessible
What roadblocks are currently in place that would prevent you from doing this in your classroom? School network security protocols and procedures could make it difficult for students to create their own sites and accounts if they don't have school based email accounts.
